[edit] Trademarks

• Craig Stevens' presenting style is noticeably influenced by the presenting of Jonathan Ross taking many of his mannerisms, movements and aping his delivery. Craig often purposely pronounces 'r' sounds as 'w' sounds even though he doesn't have a speech impediment. The Jonathan Ross impression also mimics his facial expressions and the way he twiches his collar and tie after a joke.
• Other trademarks include his blonde hi-lighted hair, tweaking his shirt-collar, comedy singing, impressions and innuendo.
